"Wow, be sure to track this one, especially size and photo, we don't know how long it takes for a toad to reach maturity so this one would be very clear evidence, you can upload his photo onto upload your toad at the top of this website page,…"

"Hi, you can send it to suzie43@gmail.com  The male is also the only one that calls so if you notice your boy blowing his throat into a big balloon at night then you know he's a boy. Please email me if he does start calling as then it puts…"

"Thanks, i'll definitely take a look at the life cycle. We're not sure if it was a male or female as it was right on the bottom of the pond so we couldn't get to it. We'll keep an eye out for him/her in the coming weeks. It is one…"

Hi everyone,We need a little advice. My husband and I have a pond in our garden with some river frogs and fish. About 5 weeks ago we introduced 3 Koi and 2 big goldfish. About 2 weeks ago we noticed all of the river fish had died and one of the Koi was looking very ragged with his scales falling off. We separated him from the others and cleaned the whole pond out. We treated all the fish with drops for fungus and various other fish ailments. Unfortunately all the fish, except 1, have now died…See More
